While not classical fencing, I know of a few WMA and SCA groups that use
schools. The local SCA group here used to use the gym of a middle school
for their practices (the armored rattan combat, as well as fencing), until
they started using my school instead.
You can find a contact there to get more info (they used two different
schools) at
